Title: Mexican Ambassador: Cartels not terrorists; they're businessmen
Post by: IronDioPriest on April 19, 2011, 11:59:49 PM
I really don't like the signals adding up lately indicating that the Mexican government is in bed with these terrorists.

From the Dallas news, HT: gatewaypundit...

Mexico ambassador: Our cartel leaders are businessmen, not terrorists (http://dallasmorningviewsblog.dallasnews.com/archives/2011/04/mexico-ambassad.html)

I wanted so badly to include some other photos with this blog item. Our files are full of the most gruesome photos imaginable. There are dismembered corpses dumped on the sidewalk. There's one of a mother and her child dead on the floor, their bodies bloodied and pockmarked by bullets. This one is the least offensive I could find while still making the point that Mexico's drug cartels are terrorist organizations.

In a letter to the editor today, Mexico's ambassador, Arturo Sarukhan , comes to the defense of these mass murdering, torturing, dismembering, bombing, beheading, kidnapping and drug trafficking organizations, arguing that they are businessmen, not terrorists. Folks, we have a first here. You will not, until now, have seen any top Mexican official actually defending the cartels to this extent. But Sarukhan, taking issue with our editorial last week in defense of a bill before Congress to put Mexico's six biggest cartels on the State Department's list of Foreign Terrorist Organizations, strongly disagrees.

Yes, they are very violent criminal organizations, he says. But "they pursue a single goal. They want to maximize their profits and do what most business do: hostile takeovers and pursue mergers and acquisitions."

Again, in their defense, he says they have "no political motivation or agenda whatsoever beyond their attempt to defend their illegal business."

So, when they kill dozens of mayors, police chiefs, soldiers, journalists, newspaper editors, businessmen, mothers, children, American visitors, immigrants, farmers, truck drivers, musicians, dancers, teachers, etc., etc., etc., we are to believe this is just business? Part of a new mergers-and-acquisitions strategy? And when they hang signs from overpasses, along with a body to punctuate their point, warning that this is their territory, not the government's, there's no political message there?

Much more @ Dallas News linked above...

The same could have been said of the Mafia.

If you ask me, Mexico has been engaging in unconventional warfare against the US for years. The annual swarm of millions of illegal immigrants into our country is very much part of Mexican government policy.
